Newt Journal, Mansfield, O. Sunday, August 10. 1ME. 6-a RegionObituaries Records Robert Buchanan James E. Tressler Court transcript called erroneous ASHLAND Ashland College as sistant football coach James E.

Tres ter, Harmon told the court it was being asked sler, 46, of Ashland died at 4:30 p.m By Paul Corbitt Newt journal Friday in Mansfield. Born April 4, 1940, in Steuben ville, Ohio, he was the son of the late James Earl and Berdina (Baker) Tressler. He was a 1962 graduate of Muskingum College and had successful football careers with Steubenville "Big Red" and Muskingum College. Mr. Tressler served as a football coach at Sandusky and Massillon high schools, Mt.

Union College, Miami University of Ohio, North Carolina University and Brown University, before coming to Ashland College in Galion, said he did not know Falzitto before the trial but became curious about the case after reading an account of it in the local newspaper. When the Municipal Court denied him access to the videotape of the Falzitto trial, Harmon took his request to the Ohio Supreme Court, which ruled in July that videotapes of trial proceedings are public records and must be accessible to the public. Harmon got a copy of the Falzitto videotape from the Municipal Court on July 28. A few days later, he got a copy of the certificate that was signed by Bender attesting that the written transcript sent to the appeals court was a "true and complete transcript" of those proceedings. The certificate contained a list of 12 corrections Bender made to the original written transcript made by the court recorder.

After viewing the videotape, Harmon said he found that the written transcript and its corrections differed significantly from what was actual-, ly on the videotape, including deletions of remarks made by the judge and by Falzitto, and the insertion of one remark that Falzitto never made. Harmon wrote a letter to the judges of the Third Appellate District in Lima on Aug. 3, along with a corrected copy of the written transcript based on his viewing of the videotape. In his let make decisions about a man's LIBt-Ki irm written transcript which is not correct." He sup gested that the judges view the videotape and de cided for themselves. He received a reply from the appeals court ad-, ministrator Thursday that said the judges could, not consider anything which was not presented by.

the parties or their counsel in the appeal or "mafc ters outside the official appellate record." "Is justice being served by (the appeals judges reply?" Harmon said. "I don't believe it is." Harmon, who is not an attorney but did his oww legal research on the matter, said his complaint is" based on principle and is not directed personally against Bender, nor does it have to do with supporting or not supporting Falzitto's case. "Based on the official transcript, I don't think he (Falzitto) could get a fair hearing," Harmon" said. "I couldn't sit back and see the court reach 4" decision based on an incomplete transcript." Bender said Friday that it would not be appropriate for him to make any comment while he4 case was before the court of appeals. Harmon has given a copy of the videotape of the" Falzitto trial and a copy of the written transcripj" to the Galion Public Library for anyone wishing Vb view it.

1985. GALION Larry Falzitto, who was charged with contempt in Crawford County Municipal Court last year, cannot get a fair hearing in appeals court because the written transcript of his 1985 trial contains "numerous and significant errors," Craig Harmon of Galion has charged. But the judges of Ohio's Third Appellate District Court have rejected Harmons's suggestion that they view the videotape of the Falzitto trial and see for themselves. On May 24, 1985, Judge John F. Bender found Larry Falzitto of Mt Gilead guilty of driving without a driver's license and proper auto registration.

Falzitto said he was defending his constitutional rights and that, under the Northwest Ordinance Act of 1787, he was not required to have either a driver's license or auto registration. Bender found Falzitto in direct contempt of court after Falzitto said, among other things, that he had no respect for "felons pretending to be judges," that Bender was a tyrant, and that he intended to have Bender disbarred. For the latter offense, Falzitto was fined $500 and sentenced to 90 days in jail.

To the accompaniment of solemn music, Prime Minister Yasuhiro Na-kasone laid chrysanthemums at the memorial cenotaph. "The government will promote discussion and negotiation, and carry on an aggressive diplomacy to achieve results in nuclear disarmament," Na-kasone said in a speech. Nagasaki Mayor Hitoshi Motoshi-ma told the crowd: "Nuclear weapons, which have now developed into proportions that can annihilate our civilization, pose a grave threat to the world.

TOKYO (AP) Sirens and train whistles wailed for one minute Saturday in Nagasaki, then a multitude offered silent prayers for peace and for the souls of an estimated 70,000 people killed exactly 41 years ago by an atomic bomb. More than 20,000 people attended this year's edition of the annual services marking the day and hour when destruction fell on the port city from a U.S. Army Air Corps bomber. Three days before the attack on Nagasaki in the closing days of World War II, Hiroshima was the target of the world's first atomic bombing. As many as 140,000 people died there.

Japan surrendered unconditionally five days after the Nagasaki attack. Following morning fireworks symbolic of the bombing, church and temple bells tolled as mourners gathered at Nagasaki's Peace Park near the hypocenter, the point directly below where the bomb exploded in a devastating fireball at 11:02 a.m. on Aug. 9, 1945. Swartz said volunteers are needed to pick up hay at several area farms and homes next Saturday and load it onto box cars at the North Diamond Street Conrail railyard.

He said there are several people donating about 1,000 bales of hay which will more than fill one car. Volunteers had sent south one box car of hay on Aug. 2 that held 750 bales of hay. Conrail will haul the hay to Cincinnati where it will be taken by the Norfolk and Southern Railroad to farmers in the South who need it to feed their starving livestock. Those persons wishing to volunteer in the loading efforts should call the County Extension Service at 755-5634 or 589-2919.
